ProgressPlay bringing new Licensee platform to ICE
Whitelabel and platform provider ProgressPlay is bringing a new Licensee platform to ICE2023 in London with a dedicated stand N8-340, heralding in a new era of service by the dynamic company now into its second decade of iGaming market supply.
This new service introduction is devoted to operator differentiation underpinned by a high-quality new technology platform that can be configured around any tailored third party configuration.
During 2022 and into 2023 ProgressPlay’s significant platform re-engineering investment, which primarily benefits the B2B channel, will be accented on current as well as pipeline operators, with single or multiple brand ambitions.
ProgressPlay has also relaunched their popular 25% discount Global Shows Offer 2023 to coincide with their first outing of the year at ICE2023, giving operators who join them at ICE a head start.
ProgressPlay is offering a standalone Licensee platform open to partners who want to manage and execute everything other than the platform. Scalable, flexible and powerful ProgressPlay’s technology stack integrates easily across the board leaving Licensees free to choose their partners and third-party providers.
The new Licensee service has been designed to deliver to international operators a solid, open, sophisticated, adaptable and highly scalable platform that is specifically customised for the demands of gambling and delivers these scalable solutions for any channel, any jurisdiction, and any business model.
At ICE2023 the ProgressPlay team will have their hands full demonstrating the versatility of this new Licensee offering for web and mobile and explaining the easy integrations that can be supported; from game provision to payment gateways, and everything in-between.
ProgressPlay has made a name for itself as a pioneer in the Whitelabel industry and was most recently shortlisted for the prestigious EGR B2B Awards.
ProgressPlay CEO Itai Loewenstein said: “As we enter our second decade in this wonderful industry, we recognise from experience that the needs of every operator vary significantly. Our deep experience gives reassurance to Licensees that we have the technology, solutions and capability to support their market ambitions.”

AGHANIM RESEARCH GAUGES DMA AWARENESS AND POTENTIAL IMPACT ON DIRECT-TO-CONSUMER DISTRIBUTION
Aghanim, a mobile gaming fintech company founded by the former CEO and CTO of Xsolla, today reveals fascinating new research among mobile game developers relating to the recently launched Digital Markets Act (DMA).
The research is based on interviews with 300 mobile game developers across the US, UK and Germany in the weeks leading up to the introduction of the Act. The new European Union legislation aims to ensure a higher degree of fairness and competition in European digital markets and designates a number of major tech corporations including Apple and Alphabet (Google) as “gatekeepers”.
The key findings of the study shows:
- 62% of mobile game developers are aware of the Digital Markets Act
- 82% have at least some understanding of how it will impact their business. Almost a fifth (19%) feel they have a complete understanding of the DMA’s impact
- 31% of mobile game developers feel they will have more freedom under the DMA, though just 9% are confident they’ll be able to keep more of their revenue
- Only 13% have ruled out making changes to their payment processes. A third (33%) have begun implementing them
- Awareness of the DMA is highest in Germany (70%), followed by the UK (68%). Less than half (47%) of US developers are aware of the legislation. While the DMA is a European framework, it applies to US developers operating in the EU
Constantin Andry, Co-founder and Co-CEO at Aghanim, commented: “This data shows that there’s an appetite for change among game developers. Yes, the platform holders instigated the $92 billion mobile games industry, but we need to be asking why game developers – the people who make the games – now only see about 10% of this. With direct-to-consumer distribution, there’s an opportunity to ensure a further $18 billion of annualized value remains within the video games industry, with game creators, which will help soften many ongoing issues including layoffs. Otherwise, the business of making mobile games could soon become unviable.”
Konstantin Golubitsky, Co-founder and Co-CEO at Aghanim, added: “The opportunity for game developers is to create a web-based game hub for their titles which provides added value for their most engaged and valuable users, keeping them coming back regularly. Ultimately, players spend where they see the most value, and our goal is to help developers provide them with the greatest value at the lowest cost.”
A key promise of the Digital Markets Act is to provide fairer competition and greater choice to gamers and game studios. However, Apple’s latest business terms introduced a Core Technology Fee which, for many game developers, cancels out the potential benefits of third-party distribution. Despite the game developers being surveyed before the introduction of the Core Technology fee, just 40% said Apple is a positive force for the games industry. 39% were neutral, while 21% felt Apple was having a negative impact. Since the introduction of App Tracking Transparency in 2021, game developers have increasingly explored direct-to-consumer platforms such as browser stores to supplement on-platform monetization with lower-fee options.
An online survey was conducted on behalf of Aghanim by Atomik Research among 305 mobile game developers in the UK (101), Germany (103), and the USA (101). The research fieldwork took place between 18-22 February 2024. Atomik Research is an independent creative market research agency that employs MRS-certified researchers and abides by MRS code.

Golden Matrix Group Joins Rio Grande do Sul Flood Relief Program
Golden Matrix Group (NASDAQ: GMGI), a leading B2B and B2C gaming technology company utilizing proprietary technology and operating globally across 17 regulated markets, today announced its participation in the global coalition initiative for flood relief efforts in Rio Grande do Sul, Brazil.
This partnership aims to provide substantial support to the communities in this Brazilian state that have been most devastated by the recent severe flooding.
This initiative is part of the gaming industry’s larger collaboration with local NGOs and humanitarian organizations, marking a significant expansion of our intensive CSR efforts, which saw over 225 community impact campaigns last year alone, primarily through the actions of its subsidiary Meridianbet.
The past week has witnessed unprecedented rainfall in Rio Grande do Sul, turning streets into rivers and isolating entire towns. The current situation remains dire, with hundreds of individuals still unaccounted for, while rescue operations have successfully evacuated over 200,000 residents using boats and helicopters.
The floods have wreaked havoc on infrastructure, with numerous bridges destroyed, severely disrupting access to Porto Alegre. The aftermath of the disaster has also led to looting in supermarkets during the night, adding to the urgency of the relief efforts.
Golden Matrix Group invites its stakeholders and the global community to contribute to this cause.
